2,997 Pounds of Bologna Products May be Contaminated

Zweigle's Inc., a
Rochester, N.Y., establishment, is recalling approximately 2,997 pounds of
bologna products that may be contaminated with Staphylococcus aureus
enterotoxin, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection
Service (FSIS) announced today.

The following products are subject to recall: [View Label (PDF Only)]
Cases containing two 10-pound packages of "PRICE CHOPPER German Brand
Bologna Made With Pork & Chicken."

Each 10-pound package bears establishment number "EST. 5333" within the
USDA mark of inspection. The products were produced on Jan. 5, 2011, and
packaged on Jan. 7, 2011. Each package also bears a white sticker including
the package code "007" and a use-by date "03/08/11." The products were
shipped to a distribution center in New York. When available, the retail
distribution list(s) will be posted on FSIS' website at www.fsis.usda.gov/
FSIS_Recalls/Open_Federal_Cases/index.asp.

After discovering a malfunction with its smokehouse, the plant recooked
the bologna products and shipped them to the distribution center. During
routine inspection activities, FSIS discovered that the time delay in
recooking the product created an environment allowing potential production
of Staphylococcus aureus enterotoxin. FSIS has received no reports of
illnesses associated with consumption of these products. Individuals
concerned about an illness should contact a physician.

FSIS routinely conducts recall effectiveness checks to verify recalling
firms notify their customers of the recall and that steps are taken to make
certain that the product is no longer available to consumers.

Consumers and media with questions about the recall should contact the
company's Chief Operating Officer, Kevin Salva, at (585) 546-1740.

Consumers with food safety questions can "Ask Karen," the FSIS virtual
representative available 24 hours a day at AskKaren.gov. The toll-free USDA
Meat and Poultry Hotline 1-888-MPHotline (1-888-674-6854) is available in
English and Spanish and can be reached from l0 a.m. to 4 p.m. (Eastern Time)
Monday through Friday. Recorded food safety messages are available 24 hours
a day.
